Primes

• Containerization
  • Drug delivery and food packaging. Unit-dose blister packs and retort pouches package a substance with its preservation environment behind a standard outer form that pharmacy shelves, vending machines, and patients all engage identically.

    This sourceStandard for single-unit and unit-dose packaging: each dose sealed individually behind a standardized barrier outer form that protects the drug from its environment until use.

    Supported in partVerified against the work's full text

    The ASHP bulletin backs the drug half: unit-dose packages enclose one dose with protection from light, moisture and air, are easy to use and go directly to the patient.

    “Packaging materials (and the package itself) must possess the physical characteristics required to protect the contents from (as required) light, moisture, tem- perature, air, and handling.”

Verification

Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.

Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
